Being a part of 3rd Saturday

Well, about a month and a half back I got a job working shipping for a company that makes football gear - everything from tackling dummies and sleds to screen-printed conference vests, goal posts and pads for Football teams from HS to NFL. Today I had to practice humility, as we're doing new goalpost pads for the University of Tennessee.

It's a great job, and very cool for a football fan to be a part of, but of all the things to happen...a Bama fan displaced in Connecticut, and making stuff for the Vols!?

Somehow, some way, I've gotta sneak a Roll Tide in the packaging.

FanPosts are just that; posts created by the fans. They are in no way indicative of the opinions of SBN and the authors of Roll Bama Roll.

I like the way...

...you’re thinkin’ BigBamaDaddy. Sneaking a Roll Tide in would be very tempting and I’d probably try it and end up getting fired!

A little something extra for "Smokey"

How about slipping a little “buck lure” onto those pads. They’ll have to stop the game to keep Smokey from going over and urinating on the pads. O.k. —that could be just about anyone trying to urinate on the goal posts after the 3rd quarter if the booze is flowing…

You know...

That might go hand in hand with the deer ticks my father in law suggested dumping in the packaging…I guess that means I’ve done my job on teaching a few Yankees just what SEC football is about.

How about ...

Just strategically placing a few boxes of donuts in there. That would keep Phil “Never Gets” Fulmer distracted the entire game. Can’t believe I’m the first one to think of that.

Good call...

...that might just look like some identifying part # to those not in the know…but make it look like a catalog number: 41-17-RTR

the 41-17-RTR idea sounds good...

maybe it’ll cause a curse like that Red Sox fan who buried that jersey in the NY stadium…
